Oxidative stress as a cost of reproduction: Beyond the simplistic trade‐off model
JR Speakman, M Garratt - BioEssays, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
The idea that oxidative stress may underpin life history trade‐offs has become extremely
popular. However, experimental support for the concept has proved equivocal. It has …

The free‐radical damage theory: accumulating evidence against a simple link of oxidative stress to ageing and lifespan
JR Speakman, C Selman - Bioessays, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Recent work on a small European cave salamander (Proteus anguinus) has revealed that it
has exceptional longevity, yet it appears to have unexceptional defences against oxidative …

Oxidative stress and life histories: unresolved issues and current needs
Life‐history theory concerns the trade‐offs that mold the patterns of investment by animals
between reproduction, growth, and survival. It is widely recognized that physiology plays a …

Individual specialization in the foraging and feeding strategies of seabirds: a review
Trophic relationships are a central theme in ecology and play a crucial role in the survival of
organisms, because the availability of food resources varies over time and space. Until …

Mercury contamination challenges the behavioral response of a keystone species to Arctic climate change
Combined effects of multiple, climate change-associated stressors are of mounting concern,
especially in Arctic ecosystems. Elevated mercury (Hg) exposure in Arctic animals could …

A year in the life of a North Atlantic seabird: behavioural and energetic adjustments during the annual cycle
During their annual cycles, animals face a series of energetic challenges as they prioritise
different life history events by engaging in temporally and potentially spatially segregated …

Foraging range scales with colony size in high-latitude seabirds
Density-dependent prey depletion around breeding colonies has long been considered an
important factor controlling the population dynamics of colonial animals. 1–4 Ashmole …

A comparison of techniques for classifying behavior from accelerometers for two species of seabird
A Patterson, HG Gilchrist, L Chivers… - Ecology and …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
The behavior of many wild animals remains a mystery, as it is difficult to quantify behavior of
species that cannot be easily followed throughout their daily or seasonal movements …

Windscapes shape seabird instantaneous energy costs but adult behavior buffers impact on offspring
KH Elliott, LS Chivers, L Bessey, AJ Gaston, SA Hatch… - Movement Ecology, 2014 - Springer
Background Windscapes affect energy costs for flying animals, but animals can adjust their
behavior to accommodate wind-induced energy costs. Theory predicts that flying animals …
